Rear damper sizes

[Steve Hampson]

The damper I have is the one ending in suffix 1016 which according to the
attached pdf is for a GSX1100F. 

The width of the top mounting is the same as a GPz but the bolt hole is 10mm
but that could be drilled out no problem.

The inside width of the lower clevis is only 30mm which is 3mm to small and
the bolt hole is also only 10mm but can be drilled out. 

I'm stuck with either trying to widen the clevis or trying to get my money
back. My only other worry is the strength of the spring. 

Does anyone know the weight of a GSX1100F?

Thanks for the info guys, much appreciated.

Steve

Steve.

I have the Koni shock on my GPz.. 

It came with limited documentation but I have attached what I have.. 

The stock shock is in the garage if you need any additional measurements
(more than Charles listed) let me know and I will pull it out.

Cheers..

Hi All, 

Does anyone have a spare rear mononshock to hand, that they could measure
for me. 

I need the top fixing diameter and width. The bottom fixing inside width of
the fork and diameter of the hole.

 

Reason being I bought a NOS Koni replacement damper which the seller claimed
was for a GPZ1100 but I've found a serial number stamped on it which tells
me its for a GSX1100F. Before I ask for my money back I wanted to check if
it would fit.

 

Cheers

Steve
